Original animation cel from Disney's 1937 motion picture masterpiece ''Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.'' Despite Hollywood snickering that ''Snow White'' would be ''Disney's folly'' and bankrupt his studio, the prescient animator forged ahead to create the first-ever fully animated feature film. Three years into its making, when resources ran dry, he had to secure emergency funding by showing a rough cut of the film to bank executives. When it finally premiered in December 1937, Disney silenced his critics through the audience's reaction, which gave the film a standing ovation and singularly ushered in the Golden Age of Animation. In this cel, a family of three blue birds perch on a branch. With the original Disney sticker on verso, reading, ''This is an original painting on celluloid from the Walt Disney Studios, actually used in the filming of 'Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs'. Only a very limited number have been selected to be placed on the market. / WALT DISNEY''. Viewable area of cel measures 5.25'' x 4.25'', matted and framed to an overall size of 13.5'' x 15.5''. Some light buckling to background. Toning to mat and tears to frame backing, else near fine.
